Disability and Teaching highlights issues of disability in K-12
schooling faced by teachers, who are increasingly accountable for
the achievement of all students regardless of the labels assigned
to them. It is designed to engage prospective and practicing
teachers in examining their personal theories and beliefs about
disability and education. Part I offers four case studies dealing
with issues such as inclusion, over-representation in special
education, teacher assumptions and biases, and the struggles of
novice teachers. These cases illustrate the need to understand
disability and teaching within the contexts of school, community,
and the broader society and in relation to other contemporary
issues facing teachers. Each is followed by space for readers to
write their own reactions and reflections, educators' dialogue
about the case, space for readers' reactions to the educators'
dialogue, a summary, and additional questions. Part II presents
public arguments representing different views about the topic:
conservative, liberal-progressive, and disability centered. Part
III situates the authors' personal views within the growing field
of Disability Studies in education and provides exercises for
further reflection and a list of resources. Disability and Teaching
is the 8th volume in the Reflective Teaching and the Social
Conditions of Schooling Series, edited by Daniel P. Liston and
Kenneth M. Zeichner. This series of small, accessible, interactive
texts introduces the notion of teacher reflection and develops it
in relation to the social conditions of schooling. Each text
focuses on a specific issue or content area in relation to teaching
and follows the same format. Books in this series are appropriate
for teacher education courses across the curriculum.
